The Infatuation

Rating coming soon

Gallow Green is the rooftop bar on top of the hotel in Chelsea where Sleep No More takes place, although you don’t have to wear a mask to drink here.

The Infatuation is an app and website which uses a small team of local editors who dine anonymously to rate and review restaurants. We are partnering with them to bring you their smart, helpful, trustworthy reviews of restaurants on OpenTable

Cancelled 4 hours before my reservation. This was to be a special occasion with my partner. Received a call cancelling- would not tell me the circumstances why they were cancelling. Offered me another reservation 2 weeks later, which isn’t going to work on a 1 week vacation. Poor.

This whole pop-up thing is so tired and weak. No one cares for your experience or their position or offering good will on behalf of the restaurant - everything is just a money grab. Everything on the menu is way too expensive here for what you are getting ($17 pre-mixed cocktails, $20 for 3 ravioli small plate, etc.). The whole point of this place is to feel cozy and old, but what you get is a fake set-up and people who are rushing you through. When the runner brought us the wrong plate of food, and it sat there for 10 minutes while we waited for our waiter to come back so we could mention it, usually they leave it because of their mistake. He told us he needed to take it back to give to another table that will order it ... yuck. When questioned about it, he corrected himself that he will probably eat it. That is basically how the whole night went down - just no regard for the customer service aspect and all about the bottom line. Spend the money on getting out of town to a real lodge instead of this plastic experience.

Great service and an attractive setting which gave it a unique atmosphere. Only thing I’d change is putting more heaters in the restaurant area during colder months. It would mean people stay longer for drinks. But staff were attentive and helpful with food and drink options

We arrived early and enjoyed cocktails in the last of the day's sunshine! The industrial style beautifully juxtaposes with lush greenery, and as the sun went down the lighting became far warmer and more intimate. Lovely spot, would definitely recommend.

Food was good. Convenient as were attending sleep no more at the mckettrick. Server was lovely but the hostess who seated us was positively rude. I would not return or recommend this restaurant because of her. They also temporarily mislaid my credit card at time of payment so we where late going to the show.

Sunset Jazz at Gallow Green was fantastic! The service was outstanding from the time we got to the entrance all the way to the end of the night. Very cool vibe , the decor makes for great ambiance, loved every moment spent there !!

Although the atmosphere and ambience was wonderful. The food was excellent in taste, but the portions were so small we had to eat again a few hours later. It was overpriced but worth the experience of a rooftop garden in late summer.

Really loved the ambiance of this place. From the mysterious entry via elevator, to the copious amount of greenery, to the moody '20's jazz track playing through the speakers, eating at Gallow Green is a sensory experience, rather than just a bar stop or dinner. The hosts were professional and incredibly attentive leaving you not wanting for (or needing) anything. The food was very good, and the menu selection was very diverse. My only hang up was with regards to communal seating. While our "table mates" were lovely people, my wife and I were expecting a table for two by which to celebrate a birthday night out, rather than cuddling up to dinner with six complete strangers. I would definitely recommend Gallow Green to my friends, but I would also make sure to request a table for two with my reservation. If that cannot be had, then I would tell my friends to bring some friends so that there would be no strangers at the table.

I was in NYC for a business trip and a friend recommended trying out a rooftop restaurant experience. Gallow Green happened to be nearby so I booked a table just a hour before dinner (over the phone they said they were booked but online I saw differently). I didn’t realize the seating was family style and I was placed next to a cozy-looking couple. The woman was clearly upset I was seated next to them and eventually got up to find someone to complain to. This left me feeling incredibly uncomfortable and awkward. There were 2 other couples they tried sitting near me, but as soon as they saw the table setup they would all ask to go somewhere else. Not a great vibe for me as I just wanted to eat and check out the ambiance. If I was with a larger group I would definitely come back, but this is not a place for date night or solo dining.

My friend and I were in absolute disbelief when the manager told us he was going to fit another patron in between us and another guest. Mind you - this other guest and I only had 4 inches of space between us. His justification was that the picnic table is technically for 8 guests. Also, this same manager spilled the other guest's wine all over her legs and phone in an attempt to move a plant. Maybe he was having a bad day and took it out on us.

Met a friend here for dinner and drinks and we had an amazing time. There was jazz music playing in the background, but not overbearing, so conversing was easy. The atmosphere and ambiance was beautiful. A gorgeous rooftop, enclosed in a rustic style atrium and surrounded by flowers and plants. I wish I had discovered this place in the summer, since fall/cooler weather is arriving now. I cannot wait to return in the future.
